Which " Large Agricultural Wheel Mover " do you use recommend ?

[Pilatus]

I am on about those pieces of equipment that have rollers on a frame (which is on castors), which fits in the front and the rear of the the large tyre/disc centre ,and a small hydraulic ram which takes the weight of the wheel ,so that one can pull the wheel of the tractor etc, and place it where you want it stored,or to one side if needing to do a job on the tractor,that was obscured by the wheel. Know doubt they are expensive BUT do they work , are some a lot better than others, castor wheels always seem to be very weak and dont last long, and I should think stop at the smallest stone with the weight of the very heavy tyre/wheel load . Are some of these tyre lifters Chinese junk.

I have one here that i got at auction iirc it was ex army, £70 quid i think it was.
there is no branding on it bar is black an yellow but it dose all it says on the tin.
you do need level ground to work it tho, the steel wheels on it out front are about 3.5" so it dont like anything more than a flat surface to roll on.
but for a one man job its priceless when you do use it.
dont have a pic sorry.

I have used a spaldings one here for swapping tractor and trailed sprayer wheels. It has transformed the job working alone. I believe @REStracTORATION sells them too.

Have a SIP 1 here works well but only on flat concrete

 

[REStracTORATION]

Spaldings one is.....shall I say.....built to a price. I don't want to say a Gerald Ratner.

We've a Spaldings one. Replaced all the castors already.

We use the spaldings one very good tool but probably better makes out there but for occasional farm use it is good and makes the job so much safer and quicker

Can you post a picture please as it sounds like a Swedish made one

If anything like ours, that's not going to be easy moving about a wheel on that ridged concrete and through the mud!

There’s a lot of them made by the same manufacturer and sold by different company's as theirs

 

[Muddyroads]

I recognise that picture!
The photo possibly makes the concrete look more ridged than it is, but I didn’t have any trouble moving the unit around with a wheel on it. Certainly the safest way I’ve fo to do the job.

 

[whindy]

I have a wheelcarter uk built bought it a lama 10yrs ago solid machine.
Had spaldings Chinese sh!t sent it back.

 

[Bobthebuilder]

got a SIP 1 here, they're all much the same some of the more expensive 1s will have slightly better wheels on them but they are all the same in the way they work as far as i've seen

We have a Spaldings one, we share it with a neighbouring farmer. It's been fine. We have replaced all the castors. Was about £30 for replacements. Went for taller castors which makes it easier to push.
